General Motors India will raise prices of its cars by 1-2 per cent by January next year on account of weakening of rupee. The company has, however, increased the price of its Beat diesel car by Rs 15,000 with immediate effect.

“In case of Beat diesel, we had an introductory price. Due to the current currency fluctuations and rising commodity prices, we have no option but pass it on to consumers,” GM India Vice President P Balendran told PTI.

GM has hiked price of Beat diesel by Rs 15,000 with immediate effect, while the rest of the models' prices will go up by 1-2 per cent by January, he added.
